Deputies search for cars in White Center shooting, chases

King County deputies are looking for a car involved in a Sunday night shooting and subsequent police chase.

At 10:50 p.m. Sunday, the sheriff’s office received a report of a black Acura chasing an SUV in White Center at speeds up to 80 mph, according to a statement issued Monday. The driver of the Acura was seen leaning out the car window shooting a pistol at the SUV.

A deputy found the Acura in the Top Hat neighborhood but lost contact after a short pursuit, according to the statement. Another deputy spotted the car on state Route 599 and pursued the driver to southbound Interstate 5; the chase was abandoned after the deputy lost sight of the other car on Kent-Des Moines Road.

Just after midnight, a White Center woman reported her 1997 Acura Integra had been stolen. Investigators believe the Integra – a black car bearing Washington license number 403ZJG with red and silver rims – was involved in the shooting and subsequent chase.

No injuries were reported. Deputies have not yet found the Integra or the red SUV, which may be a Nissan 4Runner.

Anyone with information is asked to call he King County Sheriff’s Office at 206-296-3311 or 9-1-1.
